You sure about that? Willing to wager that nobody does?
Yep
maybe indirectly, but sure as shite not directly. Maybe b/c diesel comes from oil, and we sometimes use diesel generators as backups at times, which is an enormous waste of money, but it's a backup system, and a rare one at that.

Solar sucks if you ask me.

The technology behind it sucks.
If it was so great, than we should have solar panels just lined up in the barren parts of this country sucking in free energy, but we don't, b/c it's expensive, not efficient, and it sucks.

Can't completely laugh you off screen for this part, but battery tech has come quite a ways. But why waste time telling a know it all like you?
Oh it has? how come i can't have a phone that last more than 24 hours.
Why can't we come anymore close to understanding how to store energy?
Until we come out with a new technology to store energy, we will be in the stone age when it comes to battery tech. We've done little to nothing in two years compared to where we need to be.

Also I see nothing negative about a new power plant being built.
Of course you don't.
So you have an argument to what i said?
So an area needs more power support and you think the idea of building a new power plant is bad? what's your alternative? Are you upset about the pollution that flys out the smokestacks at these big plants? Just an fyi if you didn't know, it's usually steam you see billowing out, not pollution.

I would like to see more US Nuclear plants being built, but politics and regulations prevent it from happening.

Not everything that exist is made available to the public. There is battery tech right now that could make the power companies obsolete but its not going to happen anytime soon. Current energy is on-demand and not efficient but if we were to incorporate storage and capture all that excess energy created then we would see change.

Hawaii imports millions of barrels of oil for energy. You mentioned diesel. Besides, I didn't say oil was the only way which you know, but you grabbed onto it. There are lots of "dirty" energies out there compared to the sun.

If you can use the free sun to do the same power a dirty arse power plant can do and save people millions of dollars? Then fricking a right, I think it's bad. You don't get it, that's fine. Thankfully dinosaurs like you are slowly getting fewer and further.
